Our Classes
Flameworking and Beadmaking
Flameworking (or lampworking) encompasses many different types of glasswork created with a torch. Artists use glass rods or tubes softened by the heat of the torch to create detailed sculptures, hollow forms, beads, and more. Learn the basics of beadmaking all the way through the subtleties of detailed glass sculpture.
